Gold Coast police are reviewing their operational procedures, just eight months after launching an investigation into the culture.

The Future of Policing review is specifically looking at staffing at its super stations in Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach and Southport, and whether there is a need to staff them 24 hours a day.

"Up until now there was a need to have police officers there; in the future will that need exist or will there be a greater need for those resources to be moved somewhere else?" Assistant District Officer Superintendent Craig Hanlon said.

"There would have to be a very significant evidence base to change the way we're policing now."

However Supt Hanlon said all ideas were "on the table".

He said the review would also examine whether the three stations were still needed when they were located within 10km of each other, especially considering the rapid growth in the region’s north and west.

About 300 of the Gold Coast's 850 police officers are located at Surfers Paradise.
